 The Seers….        

(Unknown POV)

Somewhere underneath the Elder City……

 

“Clack…….Clack……Clack……Clack…Clack,” I could hear the steady clacking sound of heals hitting the old stone floor. The sound grew louder and louder with each step they took. I groaned and hoped that they would keep walking past cell because I wasn’t sure if I could handle another beating so soon. “Maybe they wouldn’t beat me this time and instead leave me my weekly rations.” I snorted and thought “Yea, right like that would happen.”

As the steps got closer they started to slow until they came to a stop in front of my door.  “Fuck.” I thought, “I guess I ran out of luck” as I tucked myself into the farthest corner of the cell.  I curled up into a protective ball as I brought my knees close to my chest and tucked my head down.  I prepared for the worst as I heard the sound key turn in the old rusty lock. I tried to peek through my tangled dirty hair to see how many had come but the hall light poured into the dark cell leaving my temporary blind.

“Leave us, and bring the child some food,” a woman barked at the guard.

“Old women, you are no one to be giving orders just be thankful we let you see her at all.” The guard snarled at her.

She cackled back at him and said in strong voice, “You will do as I ask.”

I couldn’t see what was happening only that he mumbled, “Yes” as he left.

The old women shut the door and slowly approached me. I could feel her intense gaze burning into my body even though it was pitch black in the room. I heard a loud clap and suddenly the room was filled with soft light. I slowly picked up my head as my eyes slowly trailed up her dark figure.  The women was tall and cover head to toe in back and she wore one of those old fashion large brimmed hats that covered her face with a veil.

“Look up at me child,” she commanded.

I slowly tipped my head back as my mated hair fell back from my face and stared at her hidden face. “Who are you ?” I asked in a soft whisper.

“I am the Seer and I have been summoned to come see you. There is a lot I must tell and I have so little time to do so.” She said her hand raised up in the air to pull back the veil.  I gasped loudly when I saw her face because she was so beautiful. Her round pale face was flawless; her nose was pert and cute. Her mouth was lush and kissable but her eyes……she had no eyes just empty sockets.  When she heard my reaction she cackled again, “now you know why they call me the seer….. I see with my mind and not my eyes.”

“Why are you hear,” I asked.

She grinned evilly, “I’m here as an old favor to a friend. I would have gotten here sooner but I couldn’t see her fate, so I had to view her sons and that brought me to you.  You see I am just a seer and I can wield a few magic spell, like the one in this room but you have her essence.”

“Who’s essence?” I asked.

“Victoria, she is the right hand of the Dark One. She was supposed to lead our people to power if that damn pup hadn’t gotten in the way.” She said.

“But what does this have to do with me?” I asked.

She smiled, “ you my dear play a big piece in this game. You see no one realized that you have been tied to all the little alpha’s. You were at Black Moon when the pures first met and then later you were there when her daughter became Alpha of Dark Luna . So it is only natural that you been there when Katya’s son takes his spot as Alpha. You connect all their lives and the darkness is carried with you. Here let me show you something?”

The Seer squatted down to ground level and took my hand into hers. Her touch burned like fire but I could not move in her crushing grip. Soon the burned faded and vision floated into my mind.

It was a vision of me and Ionuts walking together as a couple and we looked over at Cassi.  She looked broke and defeated as Ionuts leaned down to kiss me. I grinned as the memory continued to play into the next one. I was standing in the Alpha’s office filled with Cassi’s loved one and I opened a box up that had a beautiful ring in it and a card saying, “Will you marry…love Ionuts.”  I could feel the room fill with hate as I excitedly announced my news. As I looked around the room I noticed I was no longer in an office but outdoors and I was peek at man. It wasn’t just any man but Ionuts and he was saying something. “I’m Julian Asher Finn.” He said with a devilish smile.  I stared hard but then erotic images of floated into my mind, something about this guy seem familiar …. As matter fact it all seemed like it had happen before. Then with a big “Whooshhhh” dozens of memories filled my mind. This really  happened, but how. As the last memory settled I found myself back in the dimly lit cell.

“What was that?” I asked

“That is what happened the first time, a pure mate tempted fate. That really happened and those are memories of a life once lived. What you don’t know is that you have been marked by the Dark One and that can’t be reversed.  Let me show you.” She walked over and ripped my  shirt at the shoulder and pointed a little five dot mark on it. “See that is the mark of the Dark one…Some people called it the mark of the beast.  You see Victoria marked you at the time you thought she was Asher but it was her.  She must have sensed your dark ties towards the Pures. That mark means you are her ward.”

“And that means… what exactly?” I asked.

“It means you will continue her work but first you must find the book, and then find her. They are both well hidden and it will not be an easy task, but first we must get you out of here.”

“Ok, how I’m I supposed to do all these things when I know nothing of magic.” I asked hotly

“Tsk…..Tsk…..Tsk…Do not use that tone with me child as if I’m some kind of idiot.  Those of us who fallow the dark one will lead the way and show the tools you need. Once you get out of here you have two missions….first is to find your mate and the second is to Claim the little Alpha as your own.”

“Wait what little Alpha?” I asked.

“Nikko Baldr, The Alpha of the Kamau Pack,” she said in a sinister tone.

I snorted at her, “ You know you’re crazy right?  First of Nikko can’t stand me and second he is just a boy.  What is he like…. 16… not to mention he could have found his mate already.” I said.

She Cackled,” Child you are far from being ready to go after the Alpha. By the time you are ready he will no longer be a boy but a man. As for the mate thing, I peered into is past and future and not once have I sensed his mate which is odd but regardless he does not have one.”

“Is  that even possible?” I asked.

She shrugged,” It’s the first that I have heard of but my visions are not clear when it comes to the boy. It’s almost like its being blocked. Anyways first we must get you out of here?” She said her small hand dug into the deep fold of her black dress and pulled out a small blue vile.  “Hear, you will put this in your food and eat when the food comes.” She handed me a wicked looking knife, “once you eat you will wait 2 minutes and slit your wrist.  It must look like you’re killed yourself. The potion will protected you from the pure silver knife and also give you the appearance of death.  Once they remove you from the cell they will take you to the morgue where one of our people will be waiting to get you out of here. Understand?”

I nodded,” Are you sure this will work?”

“Of course,” said with a big smile. “After all I have seen the future and you do exactly as you’re told the Darkness will arise once again.” She said as disappeared through the door.
